It's— [ oh my god ] This is going to be hard to explain. But where I'm from, on the computer - you know, my laptop that I have - there's a website that's really famous for sharing videos. Well, there's two really big ones, depending where you're from. Nico Nico Douga, which is the huge streaming site for Japan, and then there's Youtube.

I'll... get back to that later. But "Rickrolling" is a prank when someone, out of nowhere, plays the song Never Gonna Give You Up by Rick Astley. It's basically a prank that many, many people played. Especially on April Fool's. Like, a bunch of people would think that the video is of something else— like, I don't know, kittens. They'd show the kittens for maybe a few seconds before switching to the video of the song. Does that make sense?
